Seeing, Knowing, Doing [100WW]

“If you overstate your case you undermine your cause.”

How easy it is to fall in this trap. Passion for the right way, the good path, the known facts and obvious truth: the passion carries the day but, for reasons, won't overcome objections. 

I've felt this failing painfully, oblivious to the reasons. though I think I've learned some reasons. A mentor once told me, reluctantly, “You have to prove yourself in task planning and performance before your opinion has weight.” That was true for me, but others, smarter/wiser help us know and see without performance. It's a thorny problem.
